Some people think they know me
by the light in my eyes.
Some people have even gone so far
as to say I’m a little bit wise.
But, when the sun comes round each day
I face the fool inside.
I find a way to believe again,
to keep my heart open wide.
Some people will think I’m crazy
when I give it all away.
Most people never understand
at the beginning of each day,
that fool and I realize
we’ll never know the truth.
But, we always keep believing
that love will pull us through. Everyday I’m trying
to find that place where I belong.
Every night I’m waiting
for you to come back home.
As the lights are fading
I wonder if I should be moving on.
‘I know I can’t hide my heart for long. You know I’ll be asking questions.
I know you’ll be telling lies.
But, I keep looking for an answer
behind the shadows in your eyes.
That wall you’ve built around us
is about to tumble down.
You can’t keep a heart locked up inside
where you know it’s not safe and sound. Everyday I’m trying
to find that place where I belong.
Every night I’m waiting
for you to come back home.
As the lights are fading
I wonder if I should be moving on.
I know I can’t hide my heart for long.
I know I can’t hide my heart.
I know I can’t hide my heart for long. |

It doesn’t matter where you’re going.
It doesn’t matter where you’ve been.
That road can take you anywhere,
you can even begin again.
And when you start all over,
it’ll take you back where you’ve been.
That road might bring you back to me,
back into my arms again.
You might be asking too much of me
if you need me as much as you say.
You might be asking too much of me,
if you ask me to walk away.
You might be asking too much of me
if you need me as much as you say.
You might be asking too much of me,
if you need my answer today.
I wish I could give you what you want
I wish I didn’t have to stay.
But, you can take my love with you
and when you’re lonely and afraid,
I’ll try to hold the light for you,
I’ll shine it all through the day.
‘Cuz, when the road is dark and dim
my love will show you the way.
When the road is dark and dim
my love will show you the way.
My love will show you the way.
Love will show you the way. |

I don’t know when it started.
Who knows when things begin?
But ever since you walked through that door
I’ve been fighting a tailspin.
I’m trying to cross-over,
cross-over and begin again.
I’m trying to find a way to fill the space
where our love has been,
the space where our love has been.
Every where I go,
every place I see,
in every thing that I do,
I see a little of you,
a little of you.
That space you filled inside my heart
is as big as the space between,
the space between the stars at night
that’s waiting to be seen,
waiting to be seen.
Every where I go,
every place I see,
in every thing that I do,
I see a little of you,
a little of you.
I don’t know when it started.
Who knows when things begin?
Ever since you walked through that door
I’ve been fighting a tailspin, fighting.
Every where I go,
every place I see,
in every thing that I do,
I see a little of you.
Every where I go I see you. |

If questions want answers,
if hearts fill desires,
if true love is true, is it true?
If time is a hero
that heals everything,
my true love will wait for you.
If dreams reveal
secrets untold,
shadows of love, hidden truths.
If what we remember
is what we believe,
my true love will wait for you.
If truth is to truth
what love is to love,
If true love is true, is it true?
If time is a hero that
heals everything,
my true love will wait for you.
If all the stars fall one by one,
the fire in your eyes
might be the sun.
If love is to love
what fire is to fire,
my true love will wait.
If time is a hero that
heals everything,
my true love will wait. |

In early September
when the leaves were still green,
summer still with us,
we were lost in its heat.
You caught me by surprise,
by the light in your eyes.
Through the turns and the tides,
you caught me by surprise.
Life seemed so certain
before you came to me.
My whole world was turning,
‘til it stopped right at your feet.
You caught me by surprise
by the light in your eyes.
Through the turns and the tides,
you caught me by surprise.
Just the sound of your voice,
the echo of your name
has left me with no other choice,
but to give my heart away.
In winter’s pale moments
when light fades to gray,
if I slip up behind you
will I hear you say?
You caught me by surprise
by the light in your eyes.
Through the turns and the tides,
you caught me by surprise.
You caught me by surprise
by the light in your eyes.
Through the turns and the tides,
you caught me by surprise. |

I thought that I was brave,
brave enough to stay,
stay in a place where time stands still.
I guess I’m just afraid
to face the truth that we’ve made,
a life where love has lost its will.
I thought I could be wise,
wise enough to rise,
rise above the shadows of my life.
I wish I had the faith,
faith enough to wake,
faith enough to wake and realize.
I just keep livin’ lies
wearing cheap disguise.
I’m afraid to unwind
the ties that bind.
I’m afraid to unwind
the ties that bind.
I thought I could pretend,
pretend to make amends,
and forget about the love you gave to me.
It seems that there’s no end
to how far a heart can bend.
It can bend and bend and bend
and never break free.
I just keep livin’ lies
wearing cheap disguise.
I’m afraid to unwind
the ties that bind.
I just keep livin’ lies
wearing cheap disguise.
I’m afraid to unwind
the ties that bind.
I’m afraid to unwind
the ties that bind. |
Push Each Other Up

He called himself a stranger,
a stranger to this land.
Broken and forgotten,
life had slipped through his hands.
I found him at the bottom,
the bottom of his luck.
He said he thought he could make it
if I would just push him up.
She stood outside the grocery store,
two children at her feet.
I wondered who they were waiting for
when their hunger followed me.
I almost turned and walked away
when I saw her empty cup.
I knew she thought she could make it
if I would just push her up.
We push each other down and out,
we push each other’s luck.
What would this crazy world be like
if we could just push each other up?
From the bottom of a deep, dark well,
to the top of the highest wall,
the prince and the pauper,
sound the same when they fall.
When judgment day’s upon us,
when we’ve run plumb out of luck,
we’ll be looking for somebody,
somebody to push us up.
In this land of milk and honey,
in this land of push and shove,
we’ve got our greed and money,
we’ve got a little love.
We push each other down and out,
we push each other’s luck.
What would this crazy world be like?
Yeah, what would this crazy world be like,
if we could just push each other up? |

to a place that soothes my soul.
Going home,
where the river always flows.

I’m going home.
Going home,
where the water tastes like wine.
Going home,
to a place where everything’s fine.
Going home,
where the lights always shine.
Going home,
I’m going home.
Going home
a little further around the bend.
Going home,
where my journey seems to end.
Going home,
where it circles and begins again.
Going home,
I’m going home.

If I say I need you, will you be my friend?
If I say I miss you, will it ever end?
This longing, this heartache
for what might have been?
If I say……..
If I say I want you, will you call me again?
Will you reach out, and hold me,
or will you send me running and hiding?
Will you make my heart spin?
If I say……..
These simple words are hard to say.
I miss you. I need you.
I’ll want you always.
If I say I love you, will you rush right in?
Will you walk beside me hand in hand?
At morning, at midnight, at the day’s dark end?
If I say…
If I say, I love you.
If I say….. |

Standin’ at the edge
my back against the wall,
ground’s startin’ to crumble,
I’m gonna fall.
There’s no place to jump,
no place to crawl.
There’s one way out,
only one to fall.
I tried to find the lowest place of all.
When I slipped
and kissed the ground,
you walked on down the hall.
There was no place to jump,
no place to crawl.
I found one way out,
only one way to fall.
Fallin’ for you babe,
hook, line, sinker,
fallin’, hook, line, sinker and all.
Fallin’ for you is the only way to fall.
There’s no place to jump,
no place to crawl.
There’s only one way out,
only one way to fall.
When I climbed the Eiffel Tower
a hundred stories tall,
fires burned deep,
deep inside my heart,
too scared to jump,
too scared to crawl.
On top of the world
and all I can do is fall.
Fallin’ for you babe,
hook, line, sinker,
fallin’, hook, line, sinker and all.
Fallin’ for you is the only way to fall.
Fallin’ for you’s the hardest fall of all,
from the top of the world
to the bottom of it all.
Fallin’ for you’s the only way to fall.
There’s no place to jump,
no place to crawl.
There’s one way out,
only way one to fall.
There’s one way out,
only way one to fall.

Down at the corner the talk is not good.
But, you know it’s shedding some light.
It’s all over town, your secret’s out,
you’re leaving me down tonight.
I heard you’re leavin’
you ain’t ever coming back.
There’s talk about it all around town.
I even heard you’re leavin’ me down.
When you cross that Lost River
I’ll be thinkin’ of you,
driftin’ along on your schemes.
Well, down at the corner
the sky will be blue
‘cuz, you’ll be leavin’ me down in your dreams.
I heard you’re leavin’
you ain’t ever coming back.
There’s talk about it all around town.
Yeah, I heard you’re leavin’ me down.
I heard you’re leavin’

Oh baby, don’t worry,
I won’t be hanging ‘round.
I won’t be waiting by your door;
I won’t be at the lost and found.
I told you when I met you
that love was hard to find.
You turned and looked the other way,
I guess your love was blind.
It seems the game is over
it takes two if we’re gonna play.
That last night when you kissed me
I guess you forgot to say
that goodbye meant forever,
tomorrow might never come.
Those words you whispered in my ear
were just another sad love song.
I only came for the music
I won’t be staying long.
I only came for the music
to be the love inside your song.
A sad song all the people love,
a sad song lets us hear,
the beating of a tale-tell heart,
its message loud, and clear.
When you see me don’t worry,
I’ll never interfere.
But, I promised you a long, long time ago,
I’d always be somewhere near.
At the edge of your bright circle
I’m just barely out of sight.
That spot light surrounding you
is not the truest light.
I only came for the music
I won’t be staying long.
I only came for the music
to be the love inside your song.
I only came for the music
I won’t be staying long.
I only came for the music
to be the love inside your song.

Dance Again With Me

When will I ever hold you?
When will you call out my name?
When will the stars cross and lead us
to a place where love has its way?
I thought I could live without you.
I thought I could walk away.
I’ve even tried to forget you,
but all I do is pray for another day.
Do you remember the last dance we danced
beneath the old cypress trees?
The seasons have changed, and I thought perhaps
you might dance again with me.
Do you remember the last dance we danced
beneath the old cypress trees?
The seasons have changed, and I thought perhaps
you might dance again with me. (repeat chorus)

Please don’t go so far away.
Don’t walk down that lost highway.
The path is deep and wide, they say.
Why don’t you just come home?
I know my words got in the way.
I know my words aren’t enough to say
how my heart breaks when you walk away,
how I want you home.
I never thought I’d have to face
the painful truth of yesterday.
Those bitter words I can’t erase,
When will you come home?
When will you come home?
My love for you will never fade.
My life with you, I can’t replace.
Somewhere along that lost highway,
the road will bring you home.
I never thought I’d have to face
the painful truth of yesterday.
Those bitter words I can’t erase,
When will you come home?
When will you come home?

How do you mend a broken heart
thats shattered into pieces?
How do you mend a broken heart
when all youve got is love?
How do you mend a broken heart
thats withered, not beating?
How do you mend a broken heart
when all youve got is love?
I aint got no pills to pop
no threads to knot together.
no lovin arms hold me tight.
Im afraid its true.
Not even Humpty Dumptys men
know how to help a lover.
How do you mend a broken heart
when all youve got is love?
When all youve got is love, babe,
When all youve got is love,
When all youve got is love, babe,
when all youve got is love.
I aint got no CPR
no elixir from the heavens.
Though doctors try
they cant prescribe
a cure to heal my blues.
No witches brew, no voodoo dolls
will help me find another.
How do you mend a broken heart
when all youve got is love?
When all youve got is love, babe,
When all youve got is love,
When all youve got is love, babe,
when all youve got is love.
How do you mend a broken heart
thats shattered into pieces?
How do you mend a broken heart
when all youve got is love?
When all youve got is love, babe,
When all youve got is love,
When all youve got is love, babe,

Deep in the woods
we live a simple life
and share a secret most folksll never know.
We like it there where we can breathe the air,
where the lights are always low.
Way up high on the mountaintop,
down in the valley so green,
far across the ocean blue,
my baby makes my little light shine.
Yeah, my baby makes my little light shine.
In the field outside the whippoorwill cries
and calls her love back home.
With the gentlest ease in the shade of the trees
my baby likes to call me his own.
Way up high on the mountaintop,
down in the valley so green,
far across the ocean blue,
my baby makes my little light shine.
Yeah, my baby makes my little light shine.
Far away from the city lights,
far from the busy streets,
far away where the eagle flies,
my baby makes my little light shine.
When the final day comes and the journey is done
and were nothin but a star in the sky.
In those deep back woods where the eagle flew
our little light will always shine.
Way up high on the mountaintop,
down in the valley so green,
far across the ocean blue,
my baby makes my little light shine.
Way up high on the mountaintop,
down in the valley so green,
far across the ocean blue,
my baby makes my little light shine.

Beethoven had a lover
one that he could not hold.
Beethoven gave her moonlight
then slipped right into her fold.
You gave me love with diamonds
You gave me love with gold.
You locked me in your kingdom
where my heart turned stone cold.
Beethoven had a lover
one that he could not hold.
Beethoven gave her moonlight
then slipped right into her fold.
I gave you all my answers
to questions that are so old.
You took our love for granted,
then tried to steal my soul.
I dont want your diamonds.
I dont need your gold.
Go on and keep your kingdom
Ive got moonlight in my soul.
Beethoven had a lover
one that he could not hold.
Beethoven gave her moonlight
then slipped right into her fold.
You know I cant be your prisoner
cause I dont fit your mold.
Go on and give me my freedom
our fate, its been foretold.
I dont want your diamonds.
I dont need your gold.
Go on and keep your kingdom
Ive got moonlight in my soul.
I dont want those diamonds.
I dont need your gold.
Go on and keep your kingdom
Ive got moonlight in my soul.
Ive got moonlight in my soul. |

On a train through Oklahoma
an old man sat next to me.
He twirled his hat on his finger,
he let it settle to his knee.
I was riding a wild runaway
fresh out of the startin gate.
He was weathered gray, a bit jangled,
but his words were filled with grace.
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
There aint nobody chasing you.
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
Nobodys chasing you, but you.
At a station across the border
he said, "turn yourself around.
Head back home to your worried family,
to that little country town."
I told him enough was enough.
There was no place else to go
except to see what lay in front of me.
I said, "this train backs up too slow."
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
There aint nobody chasing you.
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
Nobodys chasing you but you.
All I had was my teenage heart,
lookin for a place to start.
The race had already begun;
all I knew to do was run.
I dreamed of Oklahoma,
of hayfields golden bright,
of Daddys land and Mommas hands,
of my last farewell and flight.
When the sun rose over Florida
I was full of new fires to fight.
And the rockin of that Eastbound train
pushed me farther down the line.
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
There aint nobody chasing you.
Whatcha runnin from, little girl?
Nobodys chasing you, but you.
What you running from, little girl?
There aint nobody chasing you.
What you running from, little girl?
Nobodys chasing you, but you.
Nobodys chasing you. |

I called you up just after dark
it might have been half past six.
You said, "Baby, if you call me back
we can talk in a little bit."
So I waited awhile, a good long while
then I dialed your number again.
I dialed it once, I dialed it twice,
I dialed it again and again.
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me, til midnight?
I hear you talkin to the TV.
I hear you talkin to the dog.
I hear you talkin to the neighbor,
who really doesnt talk at all.
I hear you braggin about those women,
how theyre standin in line.
Did you tell em all to give you a call,
did you tell em you dont like to talk?
How come you dont talk to me,
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me, til midnight?
By midnight I wanna be rockin,
rockin in my babys arms.
If you want me you better start talkin
and walkin me around the block.
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me, til midnight?
A woman wants a man
who will bring her down to Earth,
who will love her mornin, noon & night
and give her his word.
A man wants his woman
lookin like a star,
as beautiful as Venus
when hes sittin on Mars.
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me, til midnight?
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me?
How come you dont talk to me, til midnight?
By midnight I wanna to be rockin,
rockin in my babys arms.

Alone on this road,
on a dark, rainy night.
Your hand reaches out
and brings me delight.
Your soft caress
teases my heart,
wraps me in a tangle
thatll never fall apart.
My heart is a tangle,
a tangle of love.
My eyes only see
the stars above.
My legs are all twisted
caught up in your heart.
Our loves been a tangle,
right from the start.
The last time we met
the stars came out,
dancing before us,
stealing our hearts.
You gave me yours
and I gave you mine,
twisted and tangled
til the end of time.
My heart is a tangle,
a tangle of love.
My eyes only see
the stars above.
My legs are all twisted
caught up in your heart.
Our loves been a tangle,
right from the start.
Your voice in the night
is only a dream.
She holds you tight
with the grip of a queen.
The man at my side
gives me all that he can.
We play our cards,
shuffle the deck again.
My heart is a tangle,
a tangle of love.
My eyes only see
the stars above.
My legs are all twisted
caught up in your heart.
Our loves been a tangle,
right from the start.
Our loves been a tangle,

Its a long way to Texas,

Every cloud has a silver lining,
I hope you find it shining, my friend.
Its a long way to Texas,
a long time til I see you again.
Across the plains of Texas,
right where the horizon ends.
I gotta climb that golden stairway,
the one that reaches to heaven.
Every angel heeds a warning
I hope you hear it coming, my friend.
Its a long way to Texas
a long time til I see you again.
Every road leads to Texas.
every highway and every bend.
I gotta walk those rugged mountains
until I reach my journeys end.
Along the coast of Texas
right where the tide comes in.
I gotta wrestle with my demons,
like Daniel in the lions den.
Every heart has a secret chamber,
filled with love and danger, my friend.
Its a long way to Texas.
Its a long way to Texas,
a long time til I see you again. |

You say you want
to marry me,
wrap me in a band of gold.
You say that things are better now,
no more oats to sow.
Ive been waiting and watching you;
Ive even been taking notes.
If youre lucky I might meet you
with your pocket full of hopes.
You say you want to settle down,
move out of style and even grow old.
When summer comes rollin round
well see if that boat can float.
We know youre not a carpenter,
youre not a sailor Ive taken notes.
If youre lucky I might meet you
with your pocket full of hopes.
Will you meet me at the corner?
Will you meet me at the square?
Will you meet me at the station?
Will you play your fiddle fair?
Will you meet me after midnight
at the corner of Pecan and Oak?
Will you meet me in the broad daylight
with your pocket full of hopes?
You say you want to take me down
to the bottom of your soul.
That trip sounds a bit underground,
baby, I aint your mole.
Lets lay a penny on the track;
if its heads I might elope.
If its tails Ill have to meet you
with your pocket full of hopes.
Will you meet me at the corner?
Will you meet me at the square?
Will you meet me at the station?
Will you play your fiddle fair?
Will you meet me after midnight
at the corner of Pecan and Oak?
Will you meet me in the broad daylight
with your pocket full of hopes?
Will you meet me in the broad daylight
with your pocket full of hopes? |

Todays the
day I stop loving you,
todays the day it all ends.
No more nights lying without you.
Im tossing you to the wind.
Todays the day I stop loving you,
tomorrow a new day begins.
I wont be your part-time lover.
I wont be your part-time friend.
You told me lies, you shoved me aside.
Well, baby, never again.
Todays the day I stop loving you,
tomorrow a new day begins.
Why do you keep calling me late at night?
What is it you want me to say?
Did you not see me when I waved goodbye?
I turned my back and walked away.
I wont be your part-time lover.
I wont be your part-time friend.
You told me lies, you shoved me aside.
Baby, never again.
Todays the day I stop loving you,
todays the day it all ends.
No more nights lying without you.
Im tossing you to the wind.
Todays the day I stop loving you,
tomorrow a new day begins.
Todays the day I stop loving you
Tomorrow a new day begins. |

On the day we met
my heart made a bet
our love would be true.
Before we make plans
you better understand,
I got nothin to hide from you.
My past is behind,
so far behind;
those dog days are through.
Im standin in the sun,
Im comin undone,
I got nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
I aint hidin anything from you.
If you take a look around
at the love we found
you might even find a clue.
Its a simple little riddle
I wont play second fiddle
I got nothin to hide from you.
For better or worse
lets take another verse
before we say, "I do."
I wont change my name
for a ball and chain,
I got nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
I aint hidin anything from you.
Whats it all about
some people gotta shout
from the corners of the street.
Shes comin undone
havin too much fun,
runnin wild and free.
Everybody wants to know
the secrets of my soul.
Are you ready for the truth?
My hearts on my sleeve
You can take it or leave it,
I got nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
I aint hidin anything from you.
Nothin to hide,
nothin to hide from you.
Nothin to hide,
I aint hidin anything from you.
My hearts on my sleeve,
you can take it or leave it,
I got nothin to hide from you.

At the corner of 12th & Shadow
lovers dare to meet
where they find that they can leave
the secrets that they keep.
Broken promises fall away.
Moonlight sways in trees.
The night bird sings her morning song,
shes waited patiently.
At the corner of 12th & Shadow
your heart might skip a beat.
Cuz when the sun reaches high noon
you can feel that midnight heat.
Lovers travel far and wide
to stand beneath that tree,
where the night bird sings and wakes the dawn
and tells their story.
The night bird sings her morning song
shes waited patiently.
Shes kept her secrets all day long
and now its time to sing.
At the corner of 12th & Shadow
lovers try to steal
from the deep pockets of Father Time
and then wonder what is really real.
In the shadows of that crowded street
they hide all their mysteries.
And the lucky ones walk hand in hand
with the warmth of a night birds wings.
The night bird sings her morning song
shes waited patiently.
Shes kept her secrets all day long
and now its time to sing.
At the corner of 12th & Shadow.

Voices laugh
and voices cry.
They echo vacant halls.
Whining tires a weary heart,
a golden leaf must fall,
a golden leaf must fall.
Im erasing lines of yesterday,
erasing lines of old.
A new leaf greens on an aged bough
its light is heavens gold.
One fleeting life, too young, too wise.
A story rarely told.
You lift and swing on the rising sun,
a fire I dare to hold,
a fire I dare to hold.
Im erasing lines of yesterday,
erasing lines of old.
One bright light has led the way,
your light is heavens gold,
Pounding rain on a hot tin roof,
calls out my lonely name.
Ancient songs rise in my heart,
a mourning doves refrain,
a mourning doves refrain.
Im erasing lines of yesterday,
erasing lines of old,
believing what you give to me,
songs from heavens gold.
Im erasing lines of yesterday,
erasing lines of old,
believing what you give to me,
songs from heavens gold.
songs from heavens gold.
songs from heavens gold.
